The more babies, the better
I can’t wait to have a grandson /
Then again as far as babies, I am one /
Babies are the best, check out their big cheeks /
I love how they progress, six months or six weeks /
I dig babies more than I love to dig for beats /
OMGeez look at em crawl away on thick knees /
Haha learning to stand up in tiny cowboy boots /
Wow boy that’s cute / listen to his owl toy hoot /
Still got lanugo all over his body /
Five rolls on each arm, blobby to the max /
obsessed with babies, how could one not be? /
Obvi won’t make fun of you if you fall asleep and drool a little / That would be a hypocritical, considering their pool of spittle /
Mixed feelings /
Tricks dealing with seeming conflicts /
A strong mix of inner kids revealing convicts /
A dominant identity picks the meaning /
But you're a wealth of selves /
One self is twelve /
Eyes sting /
Try singing /
Another inner kid's screaming /
The dam burst /
You're sixteen again /
Make eye contact and repeat back gibberish /
Parents tend to pretend they’re bigger fish /
than little kids just because inside they denied an inner wish /
Adults are a snooze / battled, bruised and scarred, easily rattled by the news /
Give me a toddler any day, I’m not scared to change a diaper / That’s right sir / I don’t care if you leaked it on your high chair / Compared to dealing with fuddy-duddies your deadly crud is nicer /
Babies take what they need and it’s not no IOU /
Cry on cue / Why won’t you? / To blow minds, show what pine cone do / Adults are like, “Ew, an iPhone 2?” /
Adults blow chunks / Slow punks spread more bile than grown skunks /
They can dish it out but they can’t take it out / Get off lucky if I merely break they snout / All their false bravado is see through is naked doubt /
Did you know eyeballs came from the front of your spine when you’re developing? / You’re younger than I am but none of us are dyin / If you’re listening, you’re all one-of-a-kind sons of mine / And daughters too / A gentle nudge in life as on a swing set / so ya learn new thing ya not do-ING yet / Return to Earth with a spring in ya step /
I love how babies ape me when i'm making crazy faces / I think you’ll a-gree I should do so til the age of 80 / Let’s stay free and get thru this century safely /
supported by 22 fans who also own “Babies (feat. MC Paul Barman)”
I am honored and speechless that Solomon is not only featured on the reverse of the album but that he is honored right next to MF DOOM.
Thank you Paul and Celestophone for the music! nesagwa
Mixing space funk, jazz and warped soul, “Everything’s Fine” is a fluid masterpiece that’s very much of the moment. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 29, 2018
